OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of calmodulin antagonist O-(4-ethoxyl-butyl)-berbamine (EBB) on proliferation of human breast cancer cell MCF-7 and its possible mechanism.
METHODS
MTT assay was used to analyze the effect of EBB on tumor cells growth. Flow cytometry was used to detect its impact
Increasing evidence demonstrates that microorganisms and their products can modulate host responses to cancer therapies and contribute to tumor shrinkage via various mechanisms, including intracellular signaling pathways modulation and immunomodulation. Detoxified pneumolysin derivative ΔA146Ply is

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the reversal effect of O-(4-ethoxyl-butyl)-berbamine (EBB) on multidrug resistance (MDR) in MCF-7/ADR cell.
METHODS
3-(4, 5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to assess the antitumor effect of EBB and determine the reversal
Berbamine (BBM), one of the bis-benzylisoquinoline products isolated from Berberis amurensis, has been demonstrated for its anticancer effect against leukemia, breast cancer, liver cancer, etc. There are some studies focusing on the chemosensitization effect of
Increasing evidences reveal that autophagy inhibitor could enhance the effect of chemotherapy to cancer. However, few autophagy inhibitors are currently approved for clinical application in humans. Berbamine (BBM) is a natural compound extracted from traditional Chinese medicine that is widely used
